Bjerg will always have my utmost respect as a player, professional, and person. There are very few like him in eSports.

[@smavtwi]

I can't agree more.. He is a really nice person and a great player, he deserves a good team and a world championship! I believe in Bjergs power !!

[@afcps]

honestly bjerg is really modest and respects that he doesnt know everything which is something he had from the start, i think due to this he wont stay in lcs much longer because of how competetive and childish the atmosphere can be

[@emka_6802]

true I think franchise players should be the most respected ones because they have been to hell and heaven but still have their own shine I am not a big fan of TSM but I think every player like Bjergsen or Faker should be the players that need to have the almighty respect for their Mental to hold onto a team even in the worst moments.

[@Wildjesta]

I totally agree, he's the only streamer I can stomach watching, and I truly enjoy watching his streams on KZbin, I don't watch twitch much, so I know I'm missing a bit. But regardless, there's simply just something attractive with how he plays. It's incredibly fun.

[@sandz1988]

Its amazing how mature he is. I just wish to see him succeed in worlds get out of groups and maybe get into a semifinal, I still miss the old assasin bjerg maybe we will see it this year.

[@KingJerbear]

We saw flashes of it with his Akali picks late in the season last split. Hoping the current meta changes a bit or it might be Karthus Lissandra Galio

[@exodion4173]

he played akali n irelia at the end of last season.

[@garrettpreszler7857]

It might be able to happen. Smoothie's champ pool is huge, so if he can play front line and Grig can play front line, like he did a lot last year, then it's possible. BrokenBlade seems to be more of a fighter/bruiser than a tanky front line Top Laner, so I think we may see Bjerg play some more assassin type of stuff depending on what BB's champ pool looks like, but Bjerg will probably keep playing more team fight oriented laners like he did last season.

[@shaunwhelan17]

it's possible, it just has to come with the right team comp against the right team comp. I agree with the guy above who said it's a team game.

[@kiut5711]

I appreciate that Bjergsen is so genuine and transparent, he isn't afraid to acknowledge his missteps as well. Can't wait to watch him stomp mid again this split, he is an absolute beast at this game and has been for so long. It's really difficult not to respect this guy as a player and as a person.

[@aeon5566]

DL didn't get along with some of the TSM employees. Don't know if it was players or management, but it was definitely dragging him down. Now Double Lift is a good player, maybe not known for his consistency, but he can carry. The organization has to make sure the team can succeed. Removing double lift is one way if they just can't make it work. But I feel that this has been going on for a long time now within TSM. Ultimately they have to look in the mirror and not at their players underperforming and then just replacing them. I mean that's how Trump does business and he has the IQ of a dungheap.

[@Manjai122]

@@aeon5566 when is the last time doublelift ever performed against a good ad carry? Doublelift is only good when the event isn't

[@aeon5566]

@@Manjai122 I disagree. Thing is he is overconfident and that gets him killed. But you have to compare him to his own region and not anything outside. Since the NA region is so weak there is little to no practice to make these guys able to compete on an international event. I do think a lot of the other regions ADCs are better than him yes, but that doesn't mean that he isn't a good player. Also, contrary to popular belief games aren't won by individual skill.

[@johnjoobooks]

I live in Israel, so any US lcs team is somewhat strangers to me, but last season I was rooting for TSM because of Bjerg and tradition, C9 because of team atmosphere, and Echo Fox because of Dardoch-Huni good moments. Now C9 is great, I'm happy for their success in world's and wish them all well. EchoFox dropped both players I cared for, especially Dardoch (Huni's ability to singlehandedly lose a game annoyed me somewhat). This year I'm going to follow TSM because of Bjerg and BrokenBlade. Both ate highly professional, cerebral players with amazing mechanics as well - perfect combo for me. Good luck Bjerg, good luck TSM, make your fans (and this new one) proud!

I've never been a fan of TSM (not a hater, I just follow C9) and of all the players I have ever seen in League of Legends, Bjergsen is one of the most professional and well spoken veterans of eSports. I always enjoy interviews with him and Sneaky; they both tend to be very clean in their Q&A's.

I still wonder they removed Haunzter, from my perspective he was the organisations best player for the last 2-3 years. If anyone knows more please enlighten me!

[@fiprosha]

I don't think Hauntzer's last season was great. If I remember correctly, he overextended a lot and died and if you check his stats from last season, they aren't really great either. Also not sure if I'd call him the best player for 2-3 years. TSM has had great players and everyone of them had their moments to shine, and everyone one of them had awful moments, including Hauntzer. Also, you never know what happened behind the stage.

Kinda confusing at the beginning he says the 2017 roster was broken up because working with the same roster was too risky and then the next thing he says is the constant changes in 2018 really caused the problems. Now I wonder how they would have done had they not broken up the 2016-2017 roster.

[@greystone4050]

Like the fenix rising, #TSM will be back. Keep ip up guys.

[@aeon5566]

Good to see you being open about these things Bjergsen. But you also have to be honest. You didn't lose because of just one game. You kept repeating this a couple of times, but the synergy and mistakes in the team were too many to be able to consistently win games. If it was TSM performing amazingly and then losing by one game it'd be a bummer for you guys, but 2018 showed I think the real results of TSM underperformance. I think you managed to get away with it because NA is underperforming every year before when comparing to other high tier regions. This is common knowledge. I still enjoy watching NA LCS, but 2018 was a real bad year for NA even though C9 managed to get far in Worlds. Props to them, but that is not a reflection of how poor the region currently is.
